Small Town Murder

This week, in Bantam, Connecticut, a horribly brutal & bloody scene reminds everyone of a very similar murder, a couple years earlier, and everyone worries that a serial killer is on the prowl. The newest terrible killing is brutal in its completeness, and has few leads, other than a man, who was helping sell off scrap metal, while drinking beer, from 7 in the morning, to the end of the day. Some people think this it's a terrible mistake, but most think that a disturbed & vicious murderer has been caught. Incompetence in the investigation, heartless brutality, and crazy court proceedings make this a truly insane story!! Along the way, we find out that you can be a falconer, that DNA would have saved us all a lot of trouble in the 1970s, and that just because you breathe through a hole in your throat, doesn't mean you cant be a cold blooded killer!! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman New episodes every Thursday! Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use our email:

This week, in Marion, Indiana, a woman emerges from a backwoods swampland, filthy, covered in mosquito bites, with her two children, and a tale of unheard of blood lust, and butchery, but oncer the details start to emerge, a slightly different story comes to light. It's a terrible of death, complete with a dismembered body, stored in a dirt basement, severed arms, used as a threat, and a mess of a court situation, including the Sheriff, living next door to the defendant, lie detectors, and the legal/medical term "grossly insane"! Along the way, we find out that the United States fought England more than just the one time, that arms are difficult to saw off, and that fair isn't always right!! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman New episodes every Thursday! Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com Go to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder & Crime In Sports! Follow us on...twitter.com/@murdersmallfacebook.com/sma

This week, in Raymond, Wisconsin, a grotesque scene unfolds, after body parts are found scattered throughout a rural town, leading to rumors of cults, vampires, and camouflaged people, running through the woods. In the end, it's something even more disturbing, a regular guy. An employed, married family man, with kids, who just happens to be into gory videos, violence, and has a pornography collection that is apparently open to friends & neighbors to borrow. The murder is as bad as it gets. Torture, dissection, and dismemberment, and a brain, jammed into the garbage disposal. But the story somehow gets even stranger, when all the facts come out. Along the way, we find out that drinking is something to do when it's cold out, that brains are a tough fit for the garbage disposal, and that if you plan to murder, you'd better get rid of your porn, first!! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman New episodes every Thursday! Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use our email: cr

This week, in Mount Airy, North Carolina, the town that "Mayberry" of The Andy Griffith Show is based on isn't so idyllic, considering a body is found, posed, and with the hands chopped off. The investigation couldn't have been more incompetent, if it was conducted by the Sheriff of a sitcom, instead of the actual real police that ended up with it. Wild truths come out about the killer, including even more murder, and a prison diary that goes public, and makes the whole system angry. Will he escape the electric chair? Along the way, we find out that some people REALLY love The Andy Griffith Show, that chopping hands off doesn't keep anyone from identifying a body, and that killing more people doesn't make killing the first person okay to do!! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman New episodes every Thursday! Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com Go to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder & Crime In Sports! Fol

This week, in Woodstock, Illinois, a seemingly perfect young, small town couple, both from seemingly perfect families, who are good friends, and all from a seemingly perfect little town. What could go wrong? Well, jealously, anger, and absolutely heartless, cold blooded murder!

This week, in Cedar City, Utah, a neighbor's call to the police for a simple noise disturbance turns into something much scarier, when a mutilated, ravaged body is found, face down, in the living room. The scene is a bloody mess, and the carnage is like none there have ever seen. Just when you think it can't get any weirder, out of the house, comes a shirtless man, covered in blood, and screaming about Satan, and screaming towards the heavens that he wants to kill again! The whole thing somehow gets even wilder, when the case goes to court, and the possibility of death by firing squad is introduced!! Along the way, we find out that some history is best left in the past, that whether the person is alive, or dead, it's still sexual assault, and that it takes a lot to cut a head off!! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman New episodes every Thursday! Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com Go to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Smal

This week, in Minden, Louisiana, a scene of carnage greets family members, as they arrive for a big Christmas dinner, resulting in a complete freak out from the entire small town, and making it not very safe for any potential Santa Clauses to visit. Pure incompetence made this brutality possible by allowing two dangerous felons to walk right out the front door of the county jail, and unleashing havoc on the area. A holiday manhunt follows, taking investigators all over the country, before bringing these heartless killers back to jail, and making the electric chair an option!! Along the way, we find out that Scottish enjoys watching herding take place, that you shouldn't shout your accomplices name during a robbery, and that bad things often happen to decent people!! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman New episodes every Thursday! Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com Go to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder &a

This week, in Plymouth, New Hampshire, a sleepy, little college town is sent into shock when a woman is found, horribly killed, in her own bedroom. The case then goes cold, while the killer matures, and hones his technique with more murder, and ending up a full blown serial killer. But when investigators finally think they have the whole thing cracked, they wonder if they even have the right person. In the end, multiple terrible murders do end up fixing a certain state's emergency response system! Otherwise, it's just a mess!! Along the way, we find out that New Hampshire takes the fall season very seriously, that even serial killer's switch up their methods, and that there may just be more than one terrible person, lurking around a corner!! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman New episodes every Thursday! Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com Go to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder & Crime In Sports! Foll

This week, in Daugherty Township, Pennsylvania, the shot, battered & strangled body of a woman is discovered, and one of the most unlikely & crazy tales of murder unfolds from there. The craziest part is that the whole plot only becomes clear after a second body is recovered, and it turns out to be someone who was supposed to kill the first body. A twisted, brutal, and disturbing mess, from start to finish. How many times does it take to kill an unsuspecting person? An awful lot, apparently!  Along the way, we find out that charity events make bad comedy gigs, that you shouldn't try to get everyone you know to kill your wife, and that murder is apparently harder than it seems!! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman New episodes every Thursday! Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com Go to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder & Crime In Sports! Follow us on...twitter.com/@murdersmallfacebook.com/smalltown

This week, in Blackfoot, Idaho, when a man, with a history of making up tall tales, walks into the local police station to report a murder, everyone is skeptical. Especially, when they hear the fantastical sounding details of brain matter all over the walls, body parts cut off, and a skull with "bones and stuff", in the living room wood stove. When a couple of cops are sent out to investigate, they find out that not only was that man telling there truth, but he didn't even say exactly how bad it actually was! From there, a twisted story emerges, leaving everyone in disbelief!! Along the way, we find out that people in Idaho really do have a lot to do with potatoes, that sometimes, even a liar can be telling the truth, and that you shouldn't ask everyone that you've ever met, to help you dispose of a body! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman New episodes every Thursday! Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com Go to shutupandgivememurder

This week, in Fair Lawn, New Jersey, was it a random & vicious attack, or a family Thanksgiving, turned bloodbath? A woman found, in her own kitchen, bludgeoned & stabbed, with two knives still protruding from her back, and her family's story just isn't quite adding up. In addition, it comes out that this isn't the first time something so horrific has happened in this very house. Another act of violence, committed by the dead woman's husband. In the end, fingers are pointed, and no one wants to take responsibility, but will this woman get any justice? Along the way, we find out that judges think pregnant women can't leave the house, that some family holidays are worse than others, and that some houses may just be cursed!! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman New episodes every Thursday! Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com Go to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder & Crime In Sports! Follow us on...t

This week, in Dingess, West Virginia, the brutality is striking, when a woman's body is found, murdered, several times over, in a shallow grave, covered with twigs, but it's obvious that this was just the last stop, on a horrific ride. After rumors begin to swirl around this small town, the perpetrators of this heinous attack are brought to light, but their fingers are pointing in so many different directions, that it's hard to know who is telling the truth. One thing is for sure, and that's multiple people need to pay the price for what happened! Plus, an extra bonus short murder story, also from the backwoods of West Virginia, that is just as crazy as the main story! Along the way, we find out that just because the town is named after you, doesn't mean you aren't trash, that some people have the capacity to inflict absolute horrors upon others, and that we have the best audience in podcasting!!

This week, in Moose Lake, Minnesota, frightening footage from a surveillance camera shows a young woman, being abducted, causing an all out search, including the national guard, and hundreds of volunteers. But when she is found, it's nowhere that anyone would have, or could have looked. The suspect is a terrible man, who keeps reinventing himself with new names & appearances. Oh! And he just might be a serial killer, with a trail of unexplained bodies, that have one thing in common... this guy! Along the way, we find out that Minnesota ROCKS, that abducting 7 people, over a 10 year period, means that maybe you should have to stay in prison, and that there are certain things that you can't just blame others for!! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman New episodes every Thursday! Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com Go to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder & Crime In Sports! Follow us on...twitter.com/@mu

This week, in Jacksonville, Alabama, it's no longer safe for teens to get it on, at make out spots, because there is apparently a Zodiac style killer, on the loose, when multiple incidents of attacks take place. Investigators wonder whether they have a sophisticated serial killer, like the one on the west coast, but they could never have predicted what they end up finding. It all turns messy, from there, as cross country homicide interrogations, and trusting a murderer to make his way back to where he's a wanted man, at his own expense, and one of the biggest coincidences in the history of crime!! Along the way, we find out that a lot of these small town festivals have similar themes, that you can't trust murderers to self report, and that you can't unring a confession! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman New episodes every Thursday! Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com Go to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murde

This week, in Dimmitt, Texas, rumors spread throughout the area about a haunted house, on the outskirts of town, where witches live, and devil worshippers have ceremonies & sacrifices. This, of course, makes every teenager around want nothing more than to go, and check out what's happening there, and maybe catch a glimpse of a ghost, or at the very least, something supernatural. On Halloween night, a particular group of kids drives out to the home, and end up with much more than they bargained for. But who really committed the murder? There are more theories than anyone can count, and a couple of self proclaimed witches are left with the blame! Along the way, we find out that quilts take a long time to make, that you can't just fire guns off, at will , and that maybe you shouldn't drive out to the allegedly haunted house on Halloween night!! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman New episodes every Thursday! Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use our email: crimeinspo

This week, in Skamania, Washington, where a bloodbath is discovered, in a local home, on New Year's Day. There are several bodies, and several loose ends, including a missing teenager, and a sick grandpa, who is incapable of speech, and can't be relied upon as a witness. The scene is horrific, with the walls, bathed in blood, but the crime scene, and everything else in this case, are handled terribly, possibly because it was literally the Sheriff's first day on the job! Missing evidence, botched tests... So, was it a stranger, or a teen, murdering his whole family & committing necrophillia on his big sister? Either way, there are no good answers here! Along the way, we find out that Washington takes it's timber very seriously, that some people who don't have any friends, also have an awful lot of friends, and your first day on any job shouldn't include finding three dead bodies!! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman New episodes every Thursday! Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to pay

This week, in Indialantic, Florida, two successful, and seemingly happy couples enjoy life & love. This doesn't last long, though, as problems, affairs, and tempers flare up & cause many problems, including an absolutely horrific & violent murder, that freaks this upscale area right out. But who did it? The Ex? A new lover? A stranger? A friend, who sees the death, through psychic visions & leads their family to the location of the body? It's a mess, with changing stories, many motives, and ridiculous excuses!! Along the way, we find out that a lot of murder happens in Florida, that seizures usually don't cause psychic visions, and that leading people to a body disposal site makes you look super guilty!! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman New episodes every Thursday! Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com Go to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder & Crime In Sports! Follow us on...twitter.com

This week, in Marion, Virginia, the unthinkably terrible murder of a local woman, leads to a man, who has done this kind of thing before. This exact kind of thing. In almost the exact same place. This time, it's much worse, though, as he gets to fulfill all the crazy fantasies that he built up in his head, since the last time. This is only the start, as death row prison escapes, and a near fleeing of the country, make this one of the weirdest things we can remember. In the end, will he get a last meal, or a life in prison? Along the way, we find out that some people only get worse over time, that maybe you shouldn't tattoo "Born To Die" on your arm, and that it looks very odd to execute Santa Claus!!   Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman   New episodes every Thursday!   Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com   Go to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder & Crime In Sports!   Follow us on...   twitter.com/@murde

This week, in Climax Springs, Missouri, a retired doctor has decided to live the rest of his life in a new, swinging way, filled with drugs, and young ladies. When he finds a much younger woman, he thinks he's found his perfect match, but little does he know that his new bride, and a cast of ridiculous characters are actively trying to kill him, while he obliviously goes about his business, unknowingly thwarting murder plots, left & right. That is until it all comes together, in an absolutely brutal & bloody fashion, resulting in plenty of finger pointing, and not a lot of honesty!! Along the way, we find out that you certainly don't want to set foot in the local spring, that you shouldn't court teenagers when you're in your 70s, and that it isn't as easy to kill someone as you might think!! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman  New episodes every Thursday!  Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com  Go to shutupandgivememurder.co

This week, in Carr, Colorado, the grisly discovery of a young woman's body leads to the uncovering of maybe the strangest clan of murderers that the US has ever seen. A multigenerational family of carnival workers, and short order cooks, who travel the country, robbing people, and eventually committing one of the most horrific string of murders that has ever been seen, before, or since. Young women snatched from all night donut shops, grocery stores, and other very brazen locations. All while the wives & kids, waited in the car. It's an insane tale, that should be known by all, and somehow, isn't! Along the way, we find out that not all of Colorado is beautiful mountains, that kidnapping a store employee, while that store is open for business might not be the brightest move, and that you can't commit Bundy amounts of murder, and not expect people to notice!! Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman  New episodes every Thursday!  Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com & use ou
